WHERE MY FREEDOM LIES

WHERE MY FREEDOM LIES 

I have seen 
Another year
Of heart break 
And cheer...

Have been treated
Like a child
Who doesn't know 
Good from bad
Have been
Treated with 
Disregard to my feels
And with disrespect...

Yet, I smile 
I laugh
Getting through 
My days
In quiet strife!

They are happy 
Those who surround 
Me...

They believe that
They have done 
Well 
By robbing me
Of my
Sparrow friend...

Do they not
Know
Do they not
Realize 
Nothing breaks 
A real friendship 
Not even time?

Fools and hypocrites!

Wish they'd awaken
And open 
Their hearts and minds 
To let me be 
Free
And with my
Sparrow friend 
Take to the 
Skies...

For with
The Sparrow 
My freedom
Lies...!
